Suron ki malika – Suraiya.
——————————–
There is no better epithet that so appropriately suits this princess of musical notes. A princess who has also been called the Cindrella of Hindi cinema. A possessor of remarkable beauty, a talent that oozes with the formal ‘adaayagi’ of the north Indian urdu ‘tehzeeb’, and a voice that casts a magic spell difficult to snap out of, Suraiya is the fulfillment of the feminine essence of the quintessential heroine of the silver screen. But despite being what she was, she was destined to remain a Cindrella, forever waiting for a companion, for her knight on a white horse. Thirty four is an age when most other artists are still on the rise in their careers, getting into their prime time.

Suchitra Sen – Passing of a Legend

The one thing that always fascinates me about her, is her eyes. In all the Hindi films that I have seen, and a couple of her Bangla films, the memory that stays in the mind is that of a very beautiful face, adorned with the loveliest of eyes that I can remember. Large, round, full of expressions of life. It is as if the term doe-eyed was coined just for her.

Raag Maalikaa in Hindi Films – 1
=====================
When Atul-ji was kind enough to post, at a very short notice, my Ankahee’s Pandit Bhimsen-ji’s bhajan, I started looking at the listing of Jaidev’s composition already covered. I realised that many of the gems of my favourite Music Director Jaidev are still waiting to be posted. So in the new series, which I will call ‘Creations of Jaidev’, I have selected a Raagamala from the 1977 film ‘Alaap’. So this presentation is also in the new series ‘Filmi RaagMaalas’. I think this is one of the last few Raagmalikas composed by any music director of Hindi films.
